Meet Lazarus! This one-year-old Shepherd mix bursts with youthful energy and classic Shepherd spirit, so expect a good dose of playful chaos. While Lazarus can be hesitant around new folks at first, he steadily warms up with patience, consistency, and some structure—obedience training and ongoing socialization will go a long way. He regularly joins playgroups, where it’s clear he thrives with a confident canine buddy who can teach him the ropes and set the pace for appropriate play. Lazarus is best suited for someone familiar with Shepherds, ready to put in the time and effort, and able to provide a fenced-in yard where he can really stretch his legs. He’s already passed his behavioral assessment and shows no signs of resource guarding. Lazarus has been neutered, is current on vaccinations, and is microchipped. He’ll do best in a home with children over 10. Ready to fall in love? Hit apply and lets get started.
